Historical and clinical analysis of a case of progressive muscular atrophy (1853-1871).

European neurology2026 Mar 19

This article presents the historical and clinical analysis of Auguste-Joseph Bellinghen (1818-1872), whose medical course was documented in 1853 and later published in 1871. These records provide a rare longitudinal account of a patient with progressive muscular atrophy (PMA), a condition first described by Aran in 1850 and later redefined within the spectrum of motor neuron diseases by Charcot. The 1853 manuscript depicts a 35-year-old artisan with asymmetrical weakness, fasciculations-described by the patient as a "gelatinous oscillation"-and progressive muscular wasting, while the 1871 report shows him severely disabled, socially marginalized, and institutionalized. Together, these sources illustrate both the slow, relentless course of PMA and the therapeutic practices of the time, including cauterization, sulfur baths, and electrotherapy, all of which proved ineffective. The case also reflects the evolution of nosological frameworks: from Aran's clinical description without neuropathological confirmation to Charcot's integration of anatomical lesions into disease classification, thereby laying the foundations of modern neurology. Beyond clinical insights, the documents highlight the value of hospital archives, medical iconography, and the role of interns in constructing medical memory. Bellinghen's case thus exemplifies how individual trajectories illuminate both the biological and social dimensions of chronic illness in 19th-century France, while providing historiographic depth to the early history of motor neuron disease.

Quantitative susceptibility mapping in myotonic dystrophy: clinical relevance of subcortical iron accumulation.

Brain communications2026

Myotonic dystrophy type 1 is a dominantly inherited disorder, affecting musculoskeletal and central nervous systems and mainly characterized by progressive muscular atrophy and multisystemic damages including cardiac, respiratory and sleep dysfunctions. Neuroimaging studies conducted in myotonic dystrophy type 1 patients have documented widespread cerebral alterations encompassing structural, microstructural, functional and metabolic aspects of the brain, while comparatively few studies have investigated the role of iron concentration in the pathophysiology of central nervous system impairment. We report here the use of quantitative susceptibility (χ) mapping to explore iron content of both cortical and subcortical structures in myotonic dystrophy type 1 patients and to assess its possible clinical relevance, combining imaging and clinical data. Thirty-four myotonic dystrophy type 1 participants (20 females, 46.8 ± 12.0 years old) and 35 age- and sex- matched healthy controls (20 females, 50.5 ± 17.3 years old) were included in the study. All participants underwent MRI examinations in the same 3-Tesla scanner. The MRI protocol included 3D morphological T1-weighted magnetization prepared rapid gradient echo and T2*weighted multi-echo gradient echo for quantitative susceptibility mapping reconstruction. Cortical and subcortical structures were automatically segmented, and a volume of interest-based analysis was performed; χ distributions were compared between the two groups and myotonic dystrophy type 1 χ values were correlated with clinical and laboratory data. In the myotonic dystrophy type 1 group, a significant increase of χ was found in almost all cortical gyri, as a non-specific sign of neurodegeneration. Among subcortical structures, χ was significantly higher in myotonic dystrophy type 1 group in both thalamus (ventral and pulvinar nuclei) and brainstem (pons and medulla), compared to healthy controls. Additionally, correlation analysis showed some links between χ in subcortical structures and clinical signs, suggesting greater iron concentration with deterioration of clinical conditions. Thalamic χ values were associated with cardiological parameters and disability scores and, as with brainstem χ, they were also positively correlated with the number of central apnoeas; finally, thalamic and brainstem χ were negatively correlated with the age of onset. This study showed a correlation between autonomic dysfunction related to certain subcortical structures and their χ; higher values of χ correlated with greater functional impairment, suggesting iron accumulation detected by the quantitative susceptibility mapping technique is a possible biomarker of disease progression.

Demographic, clinical and genetic characteristics of patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis from two specialised centres in Austria.

Journal of neurology2026 Jan 10

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterised by progressive muscle weakness and ultimately death from respiratory failure. Heterogeneity in disease trajectories and outcomes among patients with ALS (pwALS) is influenced by healthcare access, rehabilitation, and palliative care, but real-world data on demographic and clinical characteristics remain scarce in many countries, including Austria. To characterise the demographic, clinical, and genetic landscape of pwALS in Austria. In this retrospective cohort study, we included pwALS diagnosed according to the Gold Coast criteria and treated at two large tertiary referral centres. Demographic, clinical, and genetic data were extracted from the local ALS registries, and survival was determined via linkage with Statistik Austria, censored in December 2023. A total of 341 patients with motor neuron disease were included (44.9% female), of whom 5% were diagnosed with primary lateral sclerosis and 2.9% with progressive muscular atrophy. Among pwALS (n = 314), spinal onset was most common (67.2%), followed by bulbar onset (29.6%) and respiratory onset (2.5%). Median survival from symptom onset was 36.0 months (IQR 20.0-74.0), with age at onset (HR 1.04, 95% CI 1.02-1.05; p < 0.0001), diagnostic delay (HR 0.97, 95% CI 0.96-0.98; p < 0.0001), and PEG tube placement (HR 0.72, 95% CI 0.50-1.00; p = 0.0478) as the only independent predictors of survival. (Likely) pathogenic variants were identified in 5.5% of patients, including two in SOD1 and one each in C9orf72, OPTN, TARDBP, and FUS. This study provides the first comprehensive description of the demographic, clinical, and genetic characteristics of pwALS in Austria, offering valuable real-world insight into disease presentation and genetic diversity.

Imaging spectrum and diagnostic insights in Hirayama disease: A case series.

Radiology case reports2026 May

Hirayama disease is a rare, self-limiting juvenile motor neuron disease predominantly affecting young males, characterized by progressive muscular atrophy and weakness in the distal upper extremities due to dynamic compression of the cervical spinal cord during neck flexion. This case series of 10 patients emphasizes the critical role of dynamic flexion MRI in diagnosis and management. All patients underwent clinical evaluation and detailed MRI imaging including dynamic flexion studies. Anterior displacement of the dural sac was observed in all 10 patients on flexion MRI, with engorgement of the posterior epidural venous plexus in 9 cases. Conservative treatment with cervical collar and physiotherapy was successful in 8 patients, while 2 with progressive disease underwent surgical fusion. Dynamic flexion MRI proved essential for establishing diagnosis and guiding treatment decisions, particularly in cases with normal or equivocal neutral imaging.

[Motor neuron diseases from a radiological perspective : Focus on amyotrophic lateral sclerosis].

Radiologie (Heidelberg, Germany)2026 Feb 19

Motor neuron diseases (MND) affect the upper and/or lower motor neurons. Radiological diagnostics primarily serve to systematically exclude treatable mimics and support the clinical and electrophysiological diagnosis. The focus is on amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS); supplementary progressive muscular atrophy (PMA, purely lower motor neuron, LMN disease) and spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). Which imaging signs support the diagnosis of ALS, how do electromyography/magnetic resonance imaging (EMG/MRI) fit into the Gold Coast criteria and which other motor neuron diseases are relevant? Overview of clinical criteria (Gold Coast), genetics and typical MRI findings of the brain, spinal cord and musculature. Gold Coast core: progressive motor deterioration, upper motor neuron (UMN) and LMN signs in ≥ 1 region or LMN in ≥ 2 regions and exclusion of alternative causes. susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) motor band sign as UMN marker; T2/fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) hyperintensities along the corticospinal tract with low sensitivity, moderate specificity; T1 bright tongue as an indication of chronic denervation in bulbar involvement. EMG: detection of subclinical LMN involvement, sometimes limited in UMN-dominant/bulbar courses. PMA: Pure purely LMN symptoms, often continuum to ALS. SMA: Autosomal autosomal recessive (SMN1 deletion). The diagnosis remains primarily clinical; EMG and MRI are supportive. The radiological priority is the exclusion of mimics. The UMN markers increase diagnostic certainty in the context of clinical/EMG findings but do not replace them. Clear findings facilitate classification according to Gold Coast. The PMA and SMA require careful differential diagnostics; characteristic MRI patterns support progression and treatment planning. HINTERGRUND: Motoneuronerkrankungen (MNE) betreffen das obere (UMN) und/oder untere (LMN) Motoneuron. Die radiologische Diagnostik dient primär dem strukturierten Ausschluss behandelbarer Mimics und der Unterstützung der klinischen und elektrophysiologischen Diagnose. Fokus: amyotrophe Lateralsklerose (ALS); ergänzend progressive Muskelatrophie (PMA) und spinale Muskelatrophie (SMA). Welche bildgebenden Zeichen stützen die ALS-Diagnose, wie ordnen sich Elektromyographie (EMG)/Magnetresonanztomographie (MRT) in die Gold-Coast-Kriterien ein, und welche weiteren MNE sind relevant? Übersicht klinischer Kriterien (Gold-Coast), Genetik und typischer MRT-Befunde von Gehirn, Rückenmark und Muskulatur. Gold-Coast-Kern: progrediente motorische Verschlechterung, UMN- und LMN-Zeichen in ≥ 1 Region oder LMN in ≥ 2 Regionen, Ausschluss alternativer Ursachen. Als Bildgebungsverfahren kommen die MRT („motor-band sign“) in der Suszeptibilitätswichtung (SWI) als UMN-Marker; T2/FLAIR-Hyperintensitäten entlang des kortikospinalen Trakts mit geringer Sensitivität und moderater Spezifität; „T1-Bright-Tongue“ als Hinweis auf chronische Denervation bei bulbärer Beteiligung. EMG: Nachweis subklinischer LMN-Beteiligung, bei UMN-dominanten/bulbären Verläufen teils limitiert. PMA: reine LMN-Symptomatik, häufig Kontinuum zur ALS. SMA: autosomal-rezessiv (SMN1-Deletion). Die Diagnose bleibt primär klinisch; EMG und MRT sind unterstützend. Radiologische Priorität ist der Ausschluss von Mimics. UMN-Marker erhöhen im Kontext von Klinik/EMG die diagnostische Sicherheit, ersetzen diese jedoch nicht. Klare Befundformulierung erleichtern die Zuordnung nach Gold-Coast. PMA und SMA erfordern differenzialdiagnostische Sorgfalt; charakteristische MRT-Muster unterstützen Verlauf und Therapieplanung.
